Roger Waters in the Best Original Song mix?
I didn't realize former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters had an original song in play this year until a copy of the soundtrack for "The Last mimzy" showed up on my doorstep last week.
The track is called "Hello (I Love You)" and, sadly, it's a bit of a bust. Leaving alone the echoes of "Is There Anybody Out There?" that are more unsettling than intriguing, but New Line has hope that it could manage one of the three (or five?) final slots.
I never saw "The Last Mimzy," and it could be a profound piece of cinema that I'm completely ignorant to, so forgive me if this is so (I'm guessing it's not). Whatever the case, that's another tune to keep in mind as the race unfolds.

You're not missing much, Kris. I saw The Last Mimzy On Demand, and it was horrendously bad. This is why studio heads shouldn't make movies. It was really terrible.
